This is a misconception as we negotiate all the time in our normal daily life. We all at some point have discussed with a few friends where to eat or drink, or something as simple as who is going to take the rubbish out. Not all our negations are trivial however, discussions with your manager regarding salary or the price you pay for a new home or car. The Effective Negotiator course will give you an understanding of the phases of negotiation as well as tools and ways to build win-win solutions.
Motivating Your Employees
It probably comes as no surprise that employees who feel valued are more motivated, responsible, and productive. The happier an employee is, the better the results they will deliver. The goal of every employer is to make sure that they have a workforce who will do their best, but this does not simply mean making the job easy for their employees. In fact, part of the problem of motivation is that where the job is too easy, employees become complacent.

It is designed specifically to help busy managers and supervisors understand what employees need to ensure that they have the correct tools to create a motivated workforce, and to give them a starting point for creating champions.

The Effective Supervisor course will walk you through all these aspects of supervision.
